Alyph is a Southeastern Asian rapper, songwriter, and producer who began his career as a member of the hip-hop duo SleeQ. Born as "Alif Abdullah" on September 21, 1989, he grew up in Singapore and formed SleeQ with his cousin, Syarif, in 2005. The group scored hit songs in Singapore and Malaysia with singles like "Untuk Dia" and "Cun Saja," both of which were written and produced by Alyph. SleeQ moved its operations to Kuala Lumpur in 2013 and launched the music production label Magic Potions, then split up in 2015. Alyph continued making music as a solo artist, releasing the debut single "Buat Selamanya" in 2017 and collaborating with a number of Malaysian hip-hop stars during the following three years. "Mimpi," his collaboration with K-Clique, became one of the biggest Malaysian hits of the decade, while projects with SonaOne, De Fam, Flizzow, and Kaka Azraff helped cement Alyph's role as an influential force in Southeastern Asian hip-hop. Celebrated equally as a solo artist and hit producer, he signed with Def Jam Southeast Asia in 2019 and released his first single in years — the self-produced "Adakah Kau Mendengar" — in late 2020, with the III/III EP following in early 2021.
